WOMEN'S GOLF: Dillingham, Mateer Named NAIA Scholar-Athletes


BALDWIN CITY, Kan. – Two members of the Baker University women’s golf team earned the prestigious 2016 Daktronics-NAIA Scholar-Athlete award, announced at the NAIA National Championship in Pooler, Georgia this week.

The two Wildcats are senior Lindsey Mateer and junior Kaci Dillingham. Mateer becomes a two-time Scholar-Athlete, as she earned the honor last year as well.

Mateer is a three-time Heart Conference Player of the Year and became the first-ever Baker golfer to be named to the CoSIDA Academic All-District team. In her four years as a Baker golfer, she was named Heart of America Athletic Conference Golfer of the Week, 13 times.

Dillingham became the first Baker women’s golfer to hit a hole-on-one since 2013, when she knocked in the 11th hole at the Table Creek Golf Course in Peru, Nebraska back in April.
